Dear organizer,

It would be great to include 2 packages for time-series forecasting: timeseries-fastai, pytorch-forecasting.

Please let us know if you are going to do it (so we do not need to spend our time hacking the system to include them in our submission) !

Best regards,  
M

Thanks. I am still lost in those instructions. I would like to focus on the basic stuffs first.
